4th ARIN / CaribNOG Technical Community Forum
COVID-19 and the Caribbean Internet

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact networks, economies and societies across the Caribbean. More than ever, keeping critical systems secure resilient and accessible is a collective responsibility.

This 4th ARIN/ CaribNOG Technical Community Forum is being convened under the theme, “SECURING CARIBBEAN DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE”.

This event will present actionable insights to help network administrators, technology practitioners and networking engineering students design, manage and secure the network infrastructure critical to delivering essential electronic services.
